My lover falls from the sky
My lover falls from the sky
on this pleasant, rainless, early May.
neighbors, women and men out on the yard
I watch as my lover falls with a thud,
head splattered melon on the ground.
walkway drenched in slimy
viscous liquid. her blood.
My lover falls with the sky
I watch closely in silence; others look on.
day deepens, dogs approach as they bark.
Shadows and this death come from all sides
to haunt us. and she is now silent.
i walk slowly towards the house with
my prayers. away from all light.
